AZ Alkmaar to continue winning run against NEC Nijmegen
7530

On Thursday night, AZ Alkmaar hosts NEC Nijmegen at the AFAS Stadion in Eredivisie, as the home team looks to continue a recent rich vein of form.

AZ Alkmaar

Pascal Jansen’s team has made an excellent start to the new campaign, as AZ heads into this game on the back of six straight wins in all competitions.

A 1-0 win at Cambuur last time out in the Eredivisie means AZ have won their last three league matches, their last four games in the Dutch top-flight if you include last season. The winning start has AZ fourth place in the Eredivisie table.

AZ have a pretty strong recent home record in the Eredivisie, as they have won seven of their previous ten matches on home soil in the Dutch top-flight.

That record includes winning their last three home matches in the Eredivisie while scoring at least two goals in each of the victories. In fact, they have scored at least two goals in six of their last seven home games in the Eredivisie.

NEC Nijmegen

The visitors have made an inconsistent start to the new Eredivisie campaign by picking up four points from their three league outings so far this season.

Nijmegen kicked off the new league campaign by losing 1-0 against FC Twente before winning 4-1 at Volendam and drawing 1-1 with Groningen.

In truth, the visitors have found wins hard to come by of late in the Eredivisie, as they have won just two of their last nine matches in the Dutch top-flight going back to the end of last season.

NEC Nijmegen have a poor recent away record, winning two and losing four of their previous six away games in the Eredivisie.
